Given how RKF Buster is packed with Jack arm, RKF Kenzan is packed with Kobuta arm and RKF Slash is packed wih Bremen Arm I think they were originally designed for those Riders, with Saber (being the main Rider and therefore given liberal access to other Rider powers) being used to showcase those forms first.

Yeah, it goes like...
- three red books for Saber
- three blue books for Blades
- three yellow books for Espada
- two books each for the three auxiliary swordsmen
- ... king of arthur

Saber just got to use them sometimes.

Today, I realized that the Narumi Detective Agency set was demolished and replaced with a hotel.

Yeah, I looked it up and it is now a small three-story hotel of sorts called Hatago COEDOYA.

So this I recently found out while looking up Tiga stuff in anticipation for the show's 25th anniversary. The reason Tiga is red and violet is most likely a reference to infrared and ultraviolet light and I like that.

So the actor who plays Jetta in Ultraman Orb was Tohru the operator in Go-Busters. I knew he was in Gokaiger as one of Kenta/Mega Red's students but did not catch that.

Just realised that Zenkaiser is also based on a past Sentai Mecha: Specifically, Varidorin from Gorenger. I don’t have a picture to upload, so I suggest you look it up.

Fuwa's fake memory was most likely planned from the start. In his memory, he was in a school, with his friends slaughtered and he ran away from an army of humagears and that forever scarred him and HIDEN intelligence hid this information.

But, during Punching Kong's debut and Aruto's own memories of the daybreak incident, it was reported that everyone managed to evacuate before the kid's dad had blown up the factory. There was no explosion in Fuwa's memory, and it doesn't line up with the factory explosion.

This also kinda made me imagine a tragic scenario for Soreo. He was confirmed as a Kamen Rider still in the original timeline, so, I imagined he probably failed in attempting to restore all of the humagears hacked by the Ark, de-transformed and headed to Aruto's location to spend one last time with him and shield from the blast.

I never even thought of that! That's not a huge revelation, but it still recontextualizes alot.

Yeah really the first thing I thought of when I saw Zenkaiser was the Bird Blaster from Jetman.

I think for a series as long-running as Super Sentai, it's impossible for things to not look similar even to a large degree. It could all be a reference or none at all.

Akibaranger's Hiroyo and Ultraman Tregear are siblings. Real life siblings.
